I've been lucky to have known that I have a bicuspid aortic valve for many years, due to my brother and mother's valve surgeries. My luck ran out this year, and it is time for a valve replacement. It doesn't make it easier being an RN with a medical background including being an Air Force Reserve nurse. Thanks to all who have given their stories on this web site and Adam who dedicates his life to the cause.
